It's Time To Kick Some Shell
DARKNESS ALWAYS PREMPTS THE LIGHT – Rose McDougal
"It's about time Death! Was wondering where the hell you were at!" Shaun and the others were standing outside for a few minutes, waiting for Rose to come out. He was intrigued by what little Rose had told him… she DID have a man in her life, who woulda thought! He was happy for her, of course, however, he wanted to meet this man, you know, to make sure he was cool and all. Seeing her come through the door, he smiled, "'Bout time Death, how long does it take ya to get all dolled up?"
"Fuck off Hulk; I was talking with my guys in there." Rosie shot him the finger, and then smiled, "Good to see you again!"
In turn, the rest of the group greeted her warmly. The others were kind of nervous, mainly because of what happened at the wedding. They didn't know how Rose and Shaun would be, and they were relieved that things were good… for now.
Everyone had come; Greg, Rob, Seth, Josh, Mark and Tom. Although they rarely used those names; they all had nicknames that suited them well. Shaun's was Hulk, because he was tall and muscular, Greg's was Corkscrew, funny and crazy all at the same time! Rob's was Genie; he was a tech genius, mainly because he could make anything out of… well anything. If you needed it, he could get it. Seth, well, he was a bit old fashioned, his nickname was Arrow. He loved to arch, and what better way to take the enemy out than with an arrow to the head! Josh's was Stick, he could blend into just about any type of terrain there was, that, and he was skinny as a damn stick too! Tom was Code Talker. He's Lakota (Indian), and he taught the rest of the unit his native language so they could communicate and the enemy had no idea what was being said. Mark's was Tasmanian Devil. One could say he was psycho, especially if you saw how he fought; however, he was a loving and kind person who was fiercely loyal to his unit and the Corps. Last, but certainly not least, is Rose… her name… Death. Why? Well, because in her whole time in the Corps, she has never missed a target… NEVER.
"So, fill us in on what's going on Death, what happened with your man?" Shaun knew it would be on a need-to-know basis, which he was fine with; however, he also wanted to know how in the hell none of them knew about this guy, she hadn't said one word to any of them… matter of fact, she was a bit reclusive these past months. Not barely a word from her. He knew there was more than what met the eye, and he would find out soon enough. Crossing his arms over his huge chest, he stood and awaited her reply.
Rose was about to tell them about the turtles, but soon as she opened her mouth, Greg lived up to his nickname. "Death has a boyfriend! Finally, a guy is brave enough to bed her! OOOOOHHHHH!"
Rolling her eyes, she playfully growled at him. "Say one more thing about it, and I swear to God that I will shove a 2x4 up your ass Corkscrew!"
"Don't threaten me with a good time Death!" Came his reply.
"You are a fuckin' sick puppy Corkscrew!" Code Talker said.
Smiling broadly, Corkscrew replied, "Yes I am!"
"Back down here to earth boys, we gotta get our asses in gear!" Rose yelled, and when she got that tone of voice, they ALL paid attention to her!
"Alright jarheads, listen up, it seems as though piss drinker Mohammad is here in the US, and he's got my guy hostage. He wants me to give him ten million dollars, which is NOT gonna happen, right?"
"OORAH!"
Looking down at her watch, she continued on. "We have thirty minutes left till they call with a location of where to go, we get there, rescue Raph, and then we kill every last one of those goat fuckers. Mohammad is NOT going to get away this time!"
Tasmanian Devil's interest peaked at that. "Killing… hell yeah! I'ma gonna kill me some piss drinkers, OORAH!"
"OORAH" Came the response from the others.
Death got serious now; this was the part where she had to tell them about the turtles and Splinter. "I got something to tell y'all, and it ain't gonna be easy… and I know y'all will have LOTS of questions, but ya gotta trust me… FULLY, got it?"
"OORAH!"
'Good. Now, about Raph and his brothers…" She began telling them about how the guys came to be who they are, condensed version of course. She made sure to put in all the key details; they didn't need to know every single thing, that would be saved for later… after this was done.
Her unit listened quietly, even Corkscrew was silent, and he NEVER stays silent, for long, that is. However, in this instance, his eyes were glued to her, just like the others were. It was a bit hard to comprehend, but if Rose said it was the truth, then it was the truth.
After she finished, Rose gave a sigh of relief. However, that was just the first part, now they were going to meet Leo, Donnie, Mikey and Splinter. Rose gave a shout for them to come outside, and they did, slowly. The guys were in the house, but they heard everything that was said.
Mikey was the most optimistic, smiling as he opened the door. "Dudes sound cool enough, and I wanna meet Corkscrew, he sounds a lot like I am!"
Placing a hand on his youngest brother's shoulder, Leo cautioned him, "I know Rose said they were ok, but still, we should take it slow, agreed?"
"Agreed' was the response from the others.
Making their way out to where Rose and the others stood, the turtles and Splinter finally came face to face with Rosie's unit mates. It was exhilarating and scary at the same time, but they stood their ground and did not flinch under the scrutiny of the Marines.
Shaun took a step forward, looking them over one by one. "Which one of you is Leonardo?"
The eldest of the turtles took a step forward, his eyes locking with the commanders. "That would be me sir."
"You guys are impressive, have any of you ever handled a gun before?" If they were going to go into a fight with these guys, Shaun wanted to know what they could do, and how good they could do it.
"We have sir." Leo replied with.
"How good are ya?" Hulk was skeptical, how in the hell could they fire a gun with those big ass fingers? He got his answer, and a demo to boot!
"Our guns were modified for us, and we are ALL excellent shots." Finishing his sentence, Leo raised his gun to the proper position and fired at a tree that was about 200 yards away. The others followed suite, each in turn firing his weapon and hitting the same tree, Splinters last show felling the tree.
"Impressive!" Shaun took another step towards Leo, holding out his hand. "Welcome to the unit Leonardo!"
Shaking the Hulks hand, Leo smiled. "Thank you sir!"
Mikey could not contain his curiosity any longer, "Which one of you dude's is Corkscrew?"
Stepping up and smiling, Greg answered, "That'd be me! And you must be Michelangelo!"
"The one and only dude!" Shaking his and, Mikey asked, "So you guys aren't freaked out about us?"
Genie said what the unit was thinking… he had a knack for that. "No, not freaked out, but quite intrigued!"
So they all mingled and chatted for a few minutes, getting to quickly know one another. Rose took it all in, somewhat surprised by how easily they accepted it all.
Coming up to stand next to her, Hulk smiled down at her, "Death, you know they believe you… they trust you fully, and if you say these guys are cool, then they are."
"Thanks Hulk, I appreciate that." Looking down at her watch, she noticed it was almost time for them to call with the location for the drop-off. "Alright you guys, time to get shit packed into the vehicles and ready! And I do believe that Genie is gonna shoot a load in his pants when he sees the upgrades to my babies."
Everyone in her unit laughed, the turtles and Splinter however, were taken aback by how she talked and acted around them. Whispering to their sansei, Leo said he was a bit worried about how she was acting. "Rose never does this around us, it's not like her!"
Placing a reassuring hand on his eldest sons shoulder, Splinter gave a slight smile, "Leonardo, a person has many sides, they will be one way with those who they care about, and however, when engaged in something as serious as this, they cannot be fun and comical."
"I understand sansei, but she's saying things that are… well, disgusting!"
Sighing, Splinter decided a blunt approach was necessary. "My son, we cannot begin to imagine what Rose has gone through in her time with the Marines, she is as she is, and we will accept her fully, do you understand this?"
"Hai father, I understand. I would not wish to change her; maybe it will take a bit of getting used to."
Mikey, as always, was listening in on their conversation. He piped in with, "No worries bro, you should hear what comes outta her mouth when her and Raph are in their room at night! It would make you blush big time!"
Arching an eyebrow, Mikey's oldest brother looked at him. "And how do YOU know what they say, you eavesdropping on them too?"
The youngest of the bunch, Mikey looked at him with a hurt expression. "Bro, I don't do that! Our room is right next to theirs, and we have an adjoining closet… they hear everything we do, and vice versa. I wish Seren woulda picked a room farther down the hall, some of the stuff we hear is… well, WHOA!"
"Ok, ok, ok, I don't think I need to hear anymore Mikey!" Leo cracked a sly smile, if his brother said everything, he meant it! "Poor Mikey, dude is now scared!" Leo made a mental note to tell them to pick another bedroom when this was over with. He knew how Mikey was with his stories about Raph… and he sure as hell did NOT want to hear about the escapades Raph and Rose had!
Everyone abruptly stopped talking when the phone rang. Taking a deep breath, Rose answered. "Yeah, I'm here."
A voice came through on the line that sent her heart racing. "Babes… is that you?"
"Raph!" She almost shouted, and then thought better of it. 'Never let the enemy know how you feel' shot through her mind. Quickly composing herself, she spoke softly. "I'm coming for ya big guy, don't you worry."
"No, Rosie, don't, it's a trap babes!"
"Big guy, we are gonna get you back, I promise you that." She was hearing noise in the background, talking, but muffled too much so she couldn't make out what was being said. "Raph… I… I love you." She whispered quickly, hoping that the piss drinkers were not listening in on them.
"I love ya too babes." Raph hesitated for a moment, and then spoke softly. "I'm sorry babes; I didn't mean what happened…"
"Hey, water under the bridge Raph; let's just get you home first, alright."
"Yeah."
*scuffling is heard then a loud grunt from Raph, then nothing*
"Good evening Rose, do you have the money with you?"
"Mohammed, you son of a bitch, you hurt him, I will kill you!" Rose hissed. She was beyond angry, and could not wait to take all of those piss drinkers out.
"Ah, you did listen to my instructions! Good! Now, you will bring the money to 142 Bruceton Road, go around the back where there is a warehouse, we will be waiting for you inside, do you understand?"
"Yes." Was all she answered with, she was too fucking pissed off to say anymore. Hanging up the phone, she turned to face the others. "The drive to where we need to go is about an hour, however, I know a shortcut that will bring it down to about thirty minutes so we can do some recon first, get a feel for what they got."
"How do you know about this back way Death?" Genie asked.
"Found it last year. Let's just say that we were off- roading with my babies and we came across it by accident. That's all you need to know." Winking at her unit, Rose gave them a lop sided smile.
Nobody asked questions, they didn't need to know.
"So Death, let's take a look at your babies already! I wanna see what ya got under them 'hoods'!" Genie spoke up. He was curious to know what upgrades she had put in, and, knowing Death, they were probably kick ass ones!
"Genie just wants to make love to them Death." Mark shot out. Everyone turned to look at him, mainly because he never got into this kinda shit with the unit, he was just content to take out the enemy any way he could. "I meant, because he's this big shit tech genius an all… and because he has an obsession with tits, which is why he was referencing the 'hoods' as tits. Fucker can't stop thinking about them!"
Rose snorted, "ALL men are in love with tits Tas, am I right Mikey?"
"Boobs! Yes! All males LOVE boobies!" No sooner were the words out of his mouth than his eyes went directly to Seren's ample breasts. She promptly rolled her eyes, but didn't say anything, which made him chuckle.
"Alright already people!" Rose was tryin to sound hard ass, but that failed. "While y'all are talking about tits, I'm gonna go with Brissen and bring my babies out."
"Why does she call those vehicles her babies?" Donnie quipped. "They are just vehicles that were supped up, that's it."
Genie answered with, "Death has been tinkering around with the two Humvees for almost five years now, trying things out to make it better, testing different types of alloy to make the outside capable of standing up to IED's, giving it more power… she's pretty good at figuring out the mechanics of it all. I'm surprised that she hasn't told you about it."
"Well, perhaps she was getting around to it." Donny mentioned. He was curious now as to why she never said anything about it, or even showed them. 'Maybe she's been so busy with us that she just didn't have time for it.' He thought, making a mental note to ask her more about the vehicles when things were calmed down.
"Alright you jarheads, here's my babies… may I introduce to you Braveheart and Big Mamma."
Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at the sight pulling up before them. To say it was kick ass was an understatement! The vehicles were almost silent, thanks to two big ass electric motors. These are not any pussy Prius motors, but made from scratch; ones that Isleen and Rose designed. Nice and quiet so they could sneak up on the enemy. Everything was state of the art, and Rose spared no expense when it came to safety and comfort either. The outsides of the vehicles had a mirror-like material on them, so they could basically blend in with any type of environment.
"Damn girl, that is some impressive shit there!" Tas quipped. "I am almost speechless!"
"I aim to please fellas! And guess what Tas… we got rocket launchers on it! Just for you, I know how ya like to have a big ass explosion when you're killing shit." Rose winked at him, smiling devilishly.
Genie, meanwhile, was standing there with his mouth hanging open. Fuck, he was blown away by it! His eyes rolled upwards as his body shook, faking an orgasm. "Oh… my… GOD!"
He did this for a few seconds then stopped. Sighing contently, he asked, "Anybody got a cig?" This brought laughter and some crude comments from his unit, with Rose exclaiming that, as usual, she was right about him doin what he did!
"Ok, we will also be taking the Jeep with us as well; I ain't having my babies messed up by everyone squeezing into both. Not to worry though, whoever rides in the Jeep will get to go in my babies on the way back… one rule though! Ain't gonna be no fucking around in it, you get a hard on from how gorgeous it is, you better pour water down your pants, got it!"
This set off another round of laughter. Rose always kidded around right before they went out on missions; it eased the nervousness of the unit, and, contrary to what people believe about the Marines, they do get nervous too.
"In Big Mama will be myself, Leo, Hulk, Arrow and Splinter. In Braveheart will be Mikey, Corkscrew, Stick, and Tas. The Jeep will hold Donnie, Genie and Code Talker, and before y'all bitch about bein in the Jeep, this is what you guys will be doing." Rose proceeded to tell them that they would be manning the com's (communication links) and making sure nobody else goes in when they enter, and no piss drinkers leave. They were fine with that, and as Code Talker said, "Long as I get to shoot some of them sub human bastards, I'll be good!"
Turning to the turtles and Splinter, but addressing the group as a whole, she started talking in a low voice. "Marines, you know what I expect from you, and I know you will give your all! OORAH!"
"OORAH!"
Directing the next few sentences to the turtles and Splinter, "Remember what I said before about this being a bigger enemy than Shredder… you see one, you KILL them. No wounding, no knocking out, KILL them, because if you don't, they will get back up and kill YOU! You have to use all your skills; you must be swift and deadly."
They nodded and bowed deeply to her.
"Good then, let's kick some piss drinking ass then!"
"OORAH!"
*About a quarter mile away from the warehouse*
"Everyone set up with the com?" Rose was finishing up adjusting hers, making sure nothing was able to slide around. When they all nodded, she continued. "Alright then, silencers are on all the weapons, Jeep is hidden under the brush, Big Mama and Braveheart are secure. Now, here's the plan… we pick off the ones who are outside first so they can't warn the others, Code Talker, Genie and Donnie, you look out for any others, keep the eyes on the warehouse, especially on the roof. We pick them off slowly so as not to rouse too much attention, they know we are coming so be like Ninjas, quiet and deadly. We get Raph, I kill Mohammed and we leave, got it."
"OORAH!" *said quieter*
They started out, testing the com's as they went along. "How do I sound Genie?" Rosie asked.
"You are coming in good Death, no problems." Came the reply, with an added, "Your ass looks good from here."
Rosie was surprised when Leo came back with, "And looking is ALL you are gonna do Genie, got THAT?"
Laughing, the Marine returned with, "Yes sir, loud and clear!"
Rolling her eyes, Rose continued on. They covered ground rather quickly and easily, not seeing anyone until about 30 feet or so before the warehouse.
"Damnit, I thought they'd be more spaced out!" Rosie hissed, seeing about fifteen or so of them scattered around. "I didn't wanna do this, but it looks like we are gonna have to spread out and take them all at once."
"Confirmed that Death," Code talker replied, taking up his spot by the guns and his promised rocket launcher. "You all are going to have to fire at the same time, domino time kiddies!"
Mikey looked a bit confused, "What does that mean Rosie?"
"It means that we gotta take them down, if one is left alive, they will warn the others inside, and we have no idea how many are in there… also, we don't want them to hurt Raph anymore."
Nodding his head in agreement, Mikey took the safety off of his gun, the others followed suite. They fanned out, but not too far, just enough so they could have good sight, close enough to each other that if something happened, they could cover one another easily.
"On my count, it's a go." Whispered Death. Taking a deep breath in, and slowly letting it out, she started the count. "One… two… three… FIRE!"
Ten of them, fifteen piss drinkers, it was good odds. Rose was able to take out three who were standing next to one another, Arrow got two, as did Leo and Hulk, the others took out the rest. That was the easy part. The alarm wasn't sound, which they were thankful for. Now comes the hard part. They were going on almost blind… almost. Death had a few tricks up her sleeve, and she was gonna use whatever she had to her advantage.
"Arrow, you and Leo get the cams up, Donnie, let us know when it's a go, alright."
"Yep, we're on it Rosie!" Working silently, the cameras were placed and running in no time. "It's a go sis; however, it's not looking too good."
"What do you mean Donnie, how many of 'em are there?" Rosie started to get a bit concerned, but then she realized that it wouldn't do her any good, so she focused again on the plan at hand. "Do you see Raph? What about Mohammed? How fuckin' many Donnie, I need numbers now!"
"Alright, alright!" Doing a quick onceover and some calculations, he came back with, "Raph looks ok, they got him tied up to an overhead beam, Mohammed is definitely there, and we got about twenty to twenty five, all armed… no rocket launchers in sight though."
"What about rooftop, any up there?" Hulk added in.
"Negative, at least, nowhere we can see." Genie replied, his eyes scanning the roof over and over, hoping that none of them were crouched down out of sight.
"Where are the fuckers located at? Can we pick them off one by one, or do we gotta go in with all guns blazing?" Rose wanted this over with, wanted her Raph back. Closing her eyes for a moment, knowing that she would have to put him out of her mind to get the job done, she opened them and spoke in a menacing voice. 'Need to fuckin' know this shit NOW."
"Both Donnie and Genie started talking in turn, each looking at different places within the building.
Donnie: "There are 3 in a room about 100 yards in front of you."
Genie: "Another two are in a small room on the left of where Donnie mentioned."
Donnie: "There's one at the entry door, the rest are in the room with Raph and Mohammed."
Genie: "Well that leaves twenty, plus Mohammed, I'm sure you guys can handle that."
Rosie snorted, "Eh, not bad odds, however Mohammed is mine, got that."
"Death, you know I outrank you." Hulk whispered, knowing it would piss her off, but he didn't care. She NEEDED to be pissed off, she would use her anger… hone it… shape it into a weapon that was needed in times such as this to obliterate then enemy.
She turned so quickly that he jumped backwards a little. "Yeah, so the fuck what! This mission I am leading, we aren't overseas Hulk, and I ain't taking orders from you! That fuckin' piss drinker is mine to kill, and I'm gonna enjoy every second of it!"
"Alright Death, it's your show, I'm just here to kill stuff."
"Damn right you are!" And with that said, the moved in silently.
"Leo, you and Stick will take out the 3 right in front of us, then join us where Raph is, which is…"
There was no hesitation, Donnie was on it. "200 feet straight and second room on the right. No closed doors."
"Tas, you take the two to the left, the rest will come with me. Remember, KILL them, aim for either the heart or head… one shot each boys, can't afford to miss any of 'em. Turning to Leo Mikey and Splinter, "Guys, if you don't wanna shoot 'em, that's fine, use your other weapons… I know you are more comfortable with them than the guns. However, don't discard them! We may need the ammo later if more are supposed to show up."
Nodding in agreement, they shouldered their guns, taking out their weapons of choice. They were out for blood as well. Somebody threatened a member of their family, and they were going to do whatever it took to get it done and get Raph back.
"On my count, one… two… three… GO!"
Leo and Stick made their way swiftly to where they needed to be. Leo beheading two with one swipe of his sword, Stick taking the other out with a nice, messy headshot. "Damn that was good, check out that splatter!" As he turned towards Leo, he was surprised by a fourth one who had just come out of, what looked to be a makeshift bathroom. They both looked surprised, and the guy was just about ready to yell that there were intruders; however, Leo's sword found it's mark… right between the mans eyes.
"Fuck man, where the hell did he come from?" Stick looked down at the dead man, watching blood ooze out of his head. "Fuckin' piss head!" Kicking the body a few times, Stick was satisfied. "Good work man, we'll make a Marine outta you yet!"
Leonardo smiled and nodded, then motioned for Stick to follow him to where they were keeping Raph.
Tas took his time in dispatching the two he had, telling them that he would let them stay alive as long as they were quiet. Funny thing about piss drinkers though, when their lives are on the line, they turn into fuckin' cowards. These idiots believed him, so, after duct taping their mouths shut really well and binding their hands behind their backs, Tas started in on his fun, as he liked to call it. First, he carved 'Marines Rule' on their chests, then proceeded to slice off some fingers… cutting ears off followed, then shooting kneecaps off. And, as a nod to Death's favorite move, 'The Ball Splatter', Tas made them unichs. He finished them off with 3 shots each to the head… just because he liked seeing their brains splatter all over the place.
Satisfied with his work, Tas then made his way to the main room to meet up with the others.
As all of this was going on, Rose and the others silently made their way towards Raph. The room was brightly lit, and they could see just how badly Raph was hurt.
Rosie was the first one to reach him; she knew he would be messed up badly having dealt with this group before. Keeping her finger on the trigger, she lowered her weapon enough so she could get closer to him. "Hey big guy… how ya doin'?"
Raphael was dazed, but still had his wits about him… and still had his stubbornness as well! "Rosie, I told you it was a trap babes… what are ya doin' here?"
Gingerly stroking his cheek she softly replied, "Getting you out of here, that's what I'm doin'!"
"No… you gotta go… you…" His haze clearing up, Raph noticed the others. "Who are those guys?"
"My unit." She knew what would happen next, was sure he had not forgotten about Shaun, so Rose shut him up the only way she knew how, other than knocking him out. She took his head in her hands, leaned in, and kissed him deeply.
Raph's head was swimming now; he had not expected this response, although he liked it. The kiss continued for several long moments until Leo approached her and whispered. "Rosie, we gotta move."
Breaking her lips from his, she nodded. "Yeah, lemme get him down." Taking her knife, she easily cut through his bonds. Falling forward into Leo and Rosie's arms Raph breathed a sigh of relief. "Fuck," then after shaking his arms out, "That feels better! So where are these fuckin' idiots at, I wanna crack at 'em!"
"That shouldn't be too hard creature, we are ALL here!" The group turned in unison; seeing Mohammed and the other twenty or so men behind him.
"No money for you fuck face," Rose hissed, "And you will finally get to meet your Allah tonight, courtesy of me!" And with that, the fight began. Rosie wasn't wasting any time and fired her weapon; it hit the man on Mohammed's left, killing him instantly. Mohammed, being the coward that he was, ran for cover. It didn't matter; he wouldn't get very far… Death was coming for him tonight, and nothing that he could do would stop it.
"Uh, guys, I don't mean to sound concerned, but you got ten more coming inside in about 30 seconds." Donnie was a bit distressed as they did not see them till they were at the door.
"What the fuck Donnie, where'd they come from?" Rose yelled into her headset.
"They must have been hiding on the roof, fuck; we don't have eyes on the back of the building!" Genie yelled back. "Donnie, you gotta hold this down, me and Code Talker are gonna have to go in!"
"Yeah, yeah, just go already, I got it!" Donnie pushed Genie out of his seat, watching all of the monitors at once.
"Alright, we getting' some action now bra!" Code Talker whooped, happy to be getting involved up close. "Now let's see what damage this launcher can do to one of these fuckers up close!"
"You are fuckin' crazy bro, you know that?" Genie was smiling himself, looking forward to some close combat.
They were not disappointed when they got there. The shit was goin' down fast and hard to say the least. Death and Corkscrew were taunting the men with some good cut downs.
"I saw some goats outside, are they your new wives?' Death shouted, offing one in the eye.
"Our bullets were dipped in pig fat you fuckers, no virgins for you!" Yelled Corkscrew, popping another one right in the heart.
"You mean no virgin goats for them, cuz that's their favorite thing to fuck!" Death came back with.
Raph was impressed with his girl… kicking ass, and saving his ass. Damn, he was proud of her!
After several tense minutes of fighting, Mohammed shouted for them to stop. "I have a propersicion for you McDougal!"
Holding her hand up, her side reluctantly stopped firing. "Yeah, what is that?"
"We fight you and I… winner walks away. And it will be to the death!"
Arching one eyebrow, she replied. "And why the fuck should I trust you piss drinker?"
"Are you willing to lay your life on the line McDougal, or are you afraid I will win."
Now this made her laugh. "You are a coward Mohammed; however, I will take you up on your offer of ending YOUR life."
"Good! There is one stipulation though… NO WEAPONS OF ANY KIND!"
"Deal!"
Raph's eyes almost popped out of his head! "What the hell are ya doin' Rosie? Have ya lost yer mind?"
Placing a hand on his arm, she gave it a gently squeeze and smiled. "Don't worry big guy, I got some tricks up my sleeve. He thinks just because I am a female, I'm weak. I 'hide behind my weapon' he says, fucking hilarious!"
"Just watch yourself out there Death." Hulk reminded her, "He's a sneaky little fucker, be ready for anything."
"Way ahead of ya Hulk, I got it covered. Have I ever let ya down in a battle before?"
"No, you haven't."
"Well I ain't gonna start now!" Standing up, she started to take off her armor and tactical vest. "If he even so much as tries to touch me, or if I should go down, shoot the fucker in the knees, I'll get back up and finish him off, so help me God!"
Her unit mates nodded. Raph however, was still afraid for her. "Rosie, ya can't do this! No!"
Looking at him, she softly said, "Gotta big guy… I love you." Turning to Leo, she bent down and whispered in his ear. "Don't let him interfere, no matter what."
"Understood. Remember your training sis." Squeezing her hand for a brief moment, Leo started talking to Raph about what had been going on. He listened to his eldest brother, but his eyes kept on going back to Rosie, who was ready to go.
Mohammed did not disappoint her, within a few minutes of them fighting; he took out a small knife, trying to slash her throat. However Death was ready for this, she knew that he wasn't going to fight fair… none of them ever do. In one swift motion she pulled the knife out of the hidden place on her boot and caught him in the right forearm, creating a huge gash about a foot long. When the knife connected with his flesh, she bore down hard on it, cutting through muscle and tendon and rendering his arm useless. His men were ready to jump in; however, a few well-placed head shots from Hulk and Tas changed their minds.
"You are not honorable, you infidel whore!"
"You know NOTHING of honor fuck face! Who took the knife out first? YOU, ya goat fucking, sub human piece of shit!"
Her taunt enraged him and he charged her, hoping to knock her off balance so his men could swoop in to finish her off. It was too bad that her unit was prepared for this as they had seen it done before. They fanned out and started shooting, slicing, whatever they could to finish this. It didn't take long before the floor was slick with blood. Mohammed slipped in the gooey substance and fell, hitting his head off of the concrete floor, stunning him for a brief moment. That moment was just long enough for Rose to kick the knife out of his other hand and pin him to the floor with a boot to the throat.
"Well that was kinda disappointing. I only enjoyed it a little bit!" Placing more pressure onto his throat Rose thought of what to do next. Kneeling down, but keeping her boot securely on his throat, Rose's voice once more took on that menacing tone. "You ARE going to die tonight… die by MY hand, and die slowly. You WILL suffer, and near the end, you will beg me for death. However, I have one last surprise for you before that." Taking out a small vile from her pocket, she showed it to him. "Know what this is Mohammed? No. It's PIGS BLOOD! Guess who is gonna DRINK IT?"
Mohammed tried very unsuccessfully to free himself; he knew if just a tiny drop touched him anywhere, he would not be allowed into paradise. Rose knew this as well, but she did not care.
"Aw, Mohammed won't open his mouth, Hulk and Tas, wanna come over an help hold him down for me? I wanna give him a good taste of this!" The two came right over and held him in place as Rose forced his mouth open and poured the pigs blood down it. "Yummy, isn't it?"
The turtles and Splinter watched as Rose tortured the man that had killed, not only her unit mate, but countless others, raped women and children, and Lord knows how many animals. Raphael was uncomfortable with things, especially Rosie being like she was. He had never saw this side of her before, and hoped to never see it again! A chill ran down his spine, thinking back to their fight. She could have easily overpowered him, but chose not to. He was in awe of her, and a bit scared at the same time. All he wanted to do was go home and just be with her. He knew he was supposed to be the bad ass one… the one who always ran towards a fight, not from it. However here he was, wanting her to leave it all be and come home with him. After he heard Mohammed call her a whore and say he would be avenged and she would be raped over and over before being stoned to death, he changed his tune.
Standing up, he made his way over to her. Looking down at her bloodied enemy, he spoke in a low tone. "I wanna piece of this fucker."
Rosie smiled at him, "Sure thing big guy, get some shots in. No killing him though, that's reserved for me ok."
"Sure thing babes." Was all he said. He went to work kicking and punching Mohammed, his pent up anger rearing its head. Rosie let it go on for a few minutes before stopping him.
"I need to do it now so we can go home, ok big guy."
Nodding his head, Raph walked back over to where his brothers and father were at, collapsing into his big brothers arms.
"Hey Tas, where's that launcher at?" Rose had a twisted smile on her face, and Tas kinda knew what she wanted to do with the launcher.
He was a little disappointed that he didn't get to use it, however he did not say anything to Death about it, and he knew that it was her kill. Handing it over to her he saluted her before turning away and walking back with the others. "We need to get outta here everyone, Death is gonna blow it up."
Mohammed lay there, trying to catch his breath. He had one last bit of fight left in him, but he would wait until everyone else left and it was just McDougal and him. Slowly making his way to a sitting position, he said nothing as he tried to conserve his strength.
Rosie made sure everyone was out and far enough away before she turned and walked to the door. With her back to him, Mohammed managed to stand, getting ready to charge her when she turned back to face him. She already knew what he was going to do when she heard the shuffling. Not waiting till she was clear of the door, she swiftly turned around and said, "Your time here is done Mohammed, have fun in hell!"
And with that, she pulled the trigger. The rocket shot out, straight towards Mohammed. Rose was on the run the second that the rocket cleared the launcher. Mohammed was frozen, not expecting the move that she made. The rocket bore into him, and for a brief second, time stood still… this was enough for Rose to quickly catch a glance, watching the rocket shoot into him and blow him, and the building, to pieces.
The force of it took her from the ground and threw her several feet. Thankfully she was not hurt. Raph ran over to her, scooping her up into his arms and holding her close. He carried her to where the vehicles were parked, not letting her away from him. She held on tightly to his neck, not wanting to let go, but knew she had to… at least, for now. "C'mon big guy, I need to have boots on the ground, gotta get outta here ASAP."
"So, who is goin where Death?" Hulk wanted to be out of there just as badly as everyone else, however, this was Deaths call, her mission… so he waited on her response.
"Looking up at Raph, she smiled. "Y'all go in whatever vehicle you want, Raph and I are gonna take the Jeep. We'll meet you at the house later."
"Roger that Death!" Corkscrew winked at her, he had an idea that they wanted to have some time alone, and he sure as hell wasn't gonna pass up an opportunity to drive Big Mamma!
After they left, Rose and Raph got into the Jeep and drove till they couldn't see the flames of the warehouse anymore. Pulling over the vehicle to the side, Rose shut off the engine. Turning to face Raph, she began talking. "Big guy, I wanted to explain things to you, I…"
That was all she got out. Raph pulled her towards him and crushed his mouth on hers, kissing her with such passion and desire that it left her breathless. They were like this for some time, not worrying about talking.
Finally breaking away from one another, they decided to go back home. Raph knew she wanted to talk, and he needed to talk as well. He also knew that they needed to get her unit mates back to their families first; the unpacking of the vehicles could wait till morning.
As they drove off, there was a car hidden very well in the trees. A man in the driver's seat broke the silence. "Dr. Smith, do you want to leave now, or should we wait until they are out of sight?"
"No, we can leave. I doubt that they would even notice if we drove right by them, and I have to make my report."
"Alright sir, it may be a bit bumpy until we get onto the road."
"That's fine." This whole damn thing was a failure. He did not expect McDougal to bring in her unit; he would remember that for next time… if there was one. His report to the higher-ups will not bode well for him; however he had a few more ideas that he wanted to try, and he was pretty sure the bosses would go for it… he hoped.
Sitting in silence for the rest of the ride, the head Doctor of Ghost Labs contemplated his ideas, choosing the next one to implement should the bosses give him the go-ahead.
NOTE: Sorry it's so long, I really didn't want to put another chapter in with this. It seems as though Ghost Labs are not only interested in Rose, but the Turtles and Splinter as well. There is also another one who is interested in Rose… Channel Six reporter April O'Neil. She is curious as to why Rose is so private, and as a reporter, she thinks Rose is hiding some deep dark secret. After doing some digging on Rose and her friends, April discovers that Rose's parents died on the same day as Brissen's and Seren's parents did. And Isleen used to work for Ghost Labs, so April was curious as to her angle in all of this. Surprises await, bonds will be tested to their limits, and we may or may not see Death's unit again. Stay tuned y'all! :D
